Can dentists take x-rays if you have braces?

Just wondering.

Answer:
As a dentist I can assure you that we can take x-rays with patients who have braces. This works with both traditional film x-rays as well as the new digital x-rays.
Yup they can.
Yes, metal and x-rays do not affect each other adversely.
Yes. They just did to me 3 weeks ago.
